Some examples from ECLIPSE of what students have said relating to atoms, ions and molecules:
K-plus represents a potassium atom that has an extra electron
Plus and minus signs represent the charges on neutral atoms
The electron in a hydrogen atom is subject to frictional forces
This is just one of a wide range of science topics that learners have talked about in ECLIPSE projects.
